Etymology
'expectedly-built' originates from the combination of 'expectedly' and 'built'. 'Expectedly' comes from the Latin 'expectare', meaning 'to look out for', and 'built' is derived from the Old English 'byldan', meaning 'to construct'.
'expectedly' evolved from the Latin 'expectare' through Middle English 'expecten', and 'built' from Old English 'byldan'.
Initially, 'expectedly' meant 'in a manner that is anticipated', and 'built' meant 'constructed'. The combined term retains these meanings.
